  • Anyone else feel this way?

    I'm not saying there aren't still creative combos and decks being made. They're just few and farbetween because it's basically why bother.

     

    Why spend the 5 minutes making your own deck when HSreplay says this demon hunter has .1% more winrate than a different deck. 

     

    It might just be me being burned out of this game. And second thought it's definitely that. But this game isn't changing in my opinion. You won't see day9's rant about jade druid nowadays. It doesn't happen. I remember when aviana kun was nerfed for bein too consistent with psychmelon, and that did literally nothing to stop it from being the be all end all combo deck for druid. You'll notice if you've seen my combo decks for druid i don't use aviana kun and that's intentional. I shoot myself in the foot by doing it but it's better than winning but feeling like i didn't accomplish anything.

  • Anyone else feel this way?

     

    Now druid is one of my favorite classes, and i enjoy playing control/combo. But this just makes it so boring and unfun to watch and play. Just to mention it's the same with every Aviana-Kun the Forgotten King deck. Draw a bunch of shit with Juicy Psychmelon, play Jepetto Joybuzz, win the game against your priest opponent who has an autofill deck, just installed hearthstone and hasn't played a single minion all game and by the way he's only on 6 mana. It's not interesting. Especially since druid has so many options for combos. 

    I still remember danehs' kael'thas malygos druid.

     
    It was so clever, he cheated out malygos with the side quest Strength in Numbers And killed his raza priest opponent on turn 5.
    This kind of innovation for combo is GREAT in this game. But what do we get every expansion. Aviana-Kun the Forgotten King, where people replace the win condition as easily as changing a lightbulb. 
     
    I remember day9's rant about jade druid, where it wasn't as much of a complaint about jade cards, but more about how lazy and unintuitive it is. And i think hearthstone is a major sink for this. So many things are seen as lazy and with no effort which other games are covering this aspect better. The "larger man" argument could literally be made against libram paladin with Libram of Wisdom, but whenever you try to bring up the deck is for the equivalent of putting the round block into the hole every turn people get mad at you. And this isn't your typical "Aggro is braindead they only play cards when they're green" Thread, it's every archetype. "This just play shit" mentality has leaked it's way into every form of hearthstone lately. Want to play singleton control but don't know what to play just put in Siamat it's a card that is literally made to be auto include so people buy more packs. Want to play combos, just play the same cards in every combo deck. Druid Aviana, Kun the Forgotten King,Juicy Psychmelon, and Jepetto Joybuzz. Shaman play Corrupt the Waters(with Tour Guide), Questing Explorer, Doppelgangster, Grumble, Worldshaker, Shudderwock. Combo in mage play Open the Waygate, and Archmage Vargoth

    It's not HS there will probably be changes to the card next patch.

    Also not all midrange decks lose to it,there are some that are good against it.

     

    I do not mean to take away your right of free speech, but I you don't need to voice your hatred towards blizzard at every opportunity. We get it, you don't like blizzard, hearthstone is terrible, you left the game and don't support them anymore. Fine, that's your choice. But you don't have to talk about it all of the time. At this point you just come across as salty.

    May we not trashtalk trash in other forums? I think we may and we will :) Just deal with it, its not like you have to read forums about a game you don't play/prefer. Its like complaining about league players who trashtalk dota: let them do their thing its not your bizness, it doesn't need to bother you since haters gonna hate and its not personal against any HS player now is it?

    We have our reasons to hate blizzard: for me its still a miracle that a company that made such great titles like WC3 and SCII became such a shithole of a company but hey activision things i guess....

  • [Game] Card Treasure Hunt (The Resurrection Attempt)

    So... It is or is not a rare card? Somewhat misleading how you phrased that

    I guess that's fair, everyone judge cards on their own.

  • Original Character, Do Not Steal - Card Design Competition Discussion Thread

    Quote From ChickyChick

    I mean, technically there was no state in rules, nor it was confirmed by mods, that you cannot use characters which have a new version in standard already. However, there is a small note at the bottom of competition main page, which goes like this: "While they do have cards that are Wild exclusive, characters like Reno and the rest of the Explorers have had their moment in the sun recently - give some love to those not in Standard at all!", but I would argue that an extra note should be considered a rule if it's not even added to the disscusion thread anywhere. However, for my own safety I decided not to submit my new version of Finley, which would be a perfect card for this competition. I guess I'll have to save it for later.

    Even if it technically won’t get you DQ’d, I still think it’s obviously against the logic of the theme. The comp refers to character, not individual cards, and it’s obvious that Sir Finley Mrrgglton and Sir Finley of the Sands refer to the same character, making Finley a character which still has a card in standard

  • [Game] Card Treasure Hunt (The Resurrection Attempt)

    Not it. The “sandwich” line does not refer to the minion being sandwiched between two minions, and I didn’t say what the rarity was, I just said @KANSAS correctly assumed it refers to the card’s rarity

  • New Targon Card - Sparklefly

    It is hilarious to look at the original release cards, in any card game, and see how soon power creep makes them 110% obsolete.

    2 mana for this card? Hmm. . .  or, do I want to pay double the mana, for an identical card with just one more point on attack. Hmm. . . . HMMMMMM. . . . !

    You are right, I should stop talking about it.. guess 6 years does that to you..

    But people talk as if it won't be changed or talked about, it's the second thread about the same deck, there wasn't really an opportunity except the new mini set release to do balance changes and honestly nerfing it at the same time of new cards being introduced is an overkill.

    there wasn't any new support for that go hard deck being introduced, while other decks got other tools, The meta might kill the deck by itself anyway since it has counters (Ionia, control, some other midrange lists), if the meta becomes a lot more control, people will stop playing it and then aggro can find a place again.

     

    I just want to say, thank you for making a mature response. I genuinely thought that you were going to make some angry post and we would engage in some pointless internet argument. You are a true gentleman. 

  • [Game] Card Treasure Hunt (The Resurrection Attempt)

    Classic, rare cards played in between minions: Ancient Mage, Defender of Argus, if any of these is it, i fail to see what the hints were all about :D

    Nope

  • Active codes

    Staff

    Check the Discord server, on the pinned messages on either #general or #new-players. Of the top of my head, they're WelcomeChallanger and LetTheGamesBegin, but best to double check. One gives you 20 packs, 10 Core and 10 From the first expansion, while the other gives you 5 from the new expansion.

    Welcome to the game!

    I'm about to try this game for the first time, just wanted to ask, are there any codes for free packs / free something else that are still active?

    No clue if it's true or if there's even a source, but I heard there's going to be no card balances until late January? I'm not entirely certain where they got it from but I heard Swim talking about it.

    Probably compared to Blizzard who left jade idol as is until rotation or Patches the Pirate being a thing..

    I am assuming Riot will balance the card somehow it's too meta defining..

    sure they take a holiday now but we will get it balanced soon enough, that's what I am saying.

    The choice is obviously yours and dust is an important resource, but I wouldn't mind getting stuck with it.

     

    Moreover, we always post a reminder that the dust refunds are going to expire lol

    do we really have to see this card multiple times in a match?
    Time for a big nerf, especially for control players

  • Nerf Reverts Next Year? Our Top 5 Card Picks That Blizzard Should Buff Back

    Honestly, I wouldn't mind if they unnerfed all of those cards when they rotate to wild. The majority of them, like the galakrond ones, won't make any gamebreaking decks anyway. Just fun tier 2 decks for wild's standards.

    The only ones that are debatable are the birb, but priest can get all the hate it deserves if you ask me, and the demon hunter cards. But these demon hunter cards are only a small portion of what made odd demon hunter as strong as it was so I see no big issue there either.

    Let "wild be exactly that: Wild!" for once, Blizzard.
